PAULAS'S CHOICE SKIN PERFECTING 1% BHA LOTION

Schon lange stand ein BHA-Peeling auf meiner Wunschliste, da es besser für die Haut sein soll, als die üblichen mechanischen Peelings. Für den Anfang habe ich mich dann für die 1%ige BHA Lotion entschieden. 

 Das Peeling soll beruhigend und reizhemmend wirken und für eine schöne und glatte Haut sorgen. Auf der Packung steht, dass man es ein- bis zweimal täglich benutzen soll, einfach eine kleine Menge auftragen und einziehen lassen. Zudem wird darauf hingewiesen tagsüber unbedingt einen Lichtschutzfaktor zu benutzen. Ich habe das Peeling nur abends vor meiner Feuchtigkeitspflege benutzt, und am nächsten Tag nicht immer einen Sonnenschutz aufgetragen, was denke ich, oder eher hoffe, nicht schlimm ist, weil ich sowieso kaum der sonne ausgesetzt war (yay zu: im Einzelhandel arbeiten, vor allem im Winter). 
Ich habe definitv gemerkt, dass meine Haut sich verbessert hat, so kleinere Unreinheiten sind verschwunden, keine neuen entstanden und insgesamt fühlt sich die Haut auch glatter an. Ich hatte vor allem auf der Nase immer diese kleine schwarze Punkte, die keine richtigen Mitesser sind, sondern eher Talgablagerungen. Zwar sind die immer noch vorhanden, doch weniger auffällig. Mein Problem waren immer Hautschüppchen zwischen den Augenbrauen, doch seitdem ich das Peeling benutze, hatte ich kein Problem mehr damit, auch nicht wenn ich Foundation aufgetragen habe. 
Die Konsistenz ist relativ flüssig und auch ein bisschen 'seidig', es lässt sich gut verteilen und zieht schnell ein. Manchmal fühlt sich die Haut dann gespannt an, das vergeht aber, sobald man seine Feuchtigkeitscreme aufgetragen hat. Der Geruch ist meiner Meinung nach angenehm.

Zusammenfassend kann ich sagen, dass ich das Produkt empfehlen kann. Am besten ist natürlich wenn man sich ein Peeling raussucht, das auf seinen Hauttyp abgestimmt ist, vielleicht braucht man auch eher ein AHA Peeling.

KIEHL'S ULTRA FACIAL MOISTURIZER SPF 30

Dies war eine meiner ersten Feuchtigkeitscremes mit LSF, ansonsten habe ich vorher, wenn überhaupt, einfach ganz normale Sonnencreme benutzt. Da ich schon die normale Feuchtigkeitscreme der Reihe sehr mochte, waren meine erwartungen dementsprechend hoch.

Leider muss ich vorneweg sagen, dass ich ziemlich enttäuscht bin. Zuallererst soll diese Creme für alle Hauttypen geeignet sein, was mich eigentlich schon stutzig hätte machen sollen. Wie kann eine Feuchtigkeitscreme gleichzeitig für trockene und ölige haut sein?? 
Zudem soll sie eine 'leicht absorbierende Wirkung' haben. Leider habe ich davon gar nix bemerkt. Die Creme ist viel zu reichhaltig für mich, und zieht fast gar nicht ein, sondern bleibt schön auf der Haut liegen. Ich bezweifle, dass das bei trockener Haut anders sein würde. 
Nur mit ganz viel Puder konnte ich mein Gesicht mattieren, um nicht wie eine Speckschwarte auszusehen, doch das hielt nicht lange an, und es musste immer wieder nachgepudert werden. Das schlimmste aber ist, dass sich die Haut den ganzen Tag klebrig anfühlt. Den ganzen Tag hab ich das Gefühl, dass Haare oder Staub auf meinem Gesicht kleben. Mein Puder sieht auch nicht mehr ansehnlich aus durch das ganze abpudern auf dem fettigen Gesicht. Nach ein paar Tagen bekomme ich sogar paar Pickelchen.
Die Konsistenz ist relativ fest und der Geruch ähnelt Nivea-Sonnencremes.

Vom Kauf würde ich also abraten, außer man sucht eine wirklich reichhaltige Feuchtigkeitscreme mit LSF.

Hello no one

I didn't wrote here for a long time! (I realized some of my posts weren't published! Fuck the blogger app :<)
Basically the reason I didn't post that much, was that I had to learn A LOT and in the end all that was for nothing because I didn't pass the exams. You can imagine how I felt. So I wasn't really in the mood to blog anything because everything I write about is so negative! I'm even at that point where I want to delete all previous posts but I won't do that again. It's a bit like my diary and the negative thoughts belong to me like my positive. Anyway, let's be real, nobody wants to read how I pity myself. 
I decided to focus on the positive here, and balance it with a hint of negativity! It sounds like a plan, let's see how it works.  I have a lot to tell from the previous weeks, I even planned a DIY! It isn't really special but it's nice :) 

I'll take the matter in my hands

After another beautiful crying session and hours full of self-pity, I came to the conclusion that I have to do something about my life. I just can't keep up like this anymore and I feel like I'm loosing myself. I don't even have the energy to see my friends anymore! Everything is exhausting me, especially thinking about my future. 
As a kid my parents weren't a lot at home and later when we gave up our restaurant, both of my parents had to work full-time. Sometimes one or the other didn't work a period of time but all in all I was a lot alone with my brother. I feel bad sometimes because he had to give up a lot to take care of me. In conclusion I had to start taking care of myself in an early age. I was jealous of the kids whose mother were at home after school and didn't had to make their meal alone. I'm not mad at my parents for this because they had to, but the thing I wanted to say is that I had to start early deciding what I wanted to do, what I wanted to eat, I had to take care of the house. It didn't felt right for me, I felt like I was pushed into adulthood. In addition they always wanted me to do things alone and I hated it! I was always indecisive and this just made it worse. 
After I graduated I was suddenly without a plan (I love plans and I hate risks!) and I didn't know what to do! (Still don't know haha) I tried this study but it just doesn't feel right and everything I thought will get better, got worse! I know that because of my defiant nature I will always be in this stage where I don't want to do and decide something on my own, in reason of being pushed into things I didn't belong to. 
Now I've had enough and I finally have to take the matter in my own hands. I need time off my family, off everything. And making my head clear again, so that I can bloom again. 

Perfect Leather Pants

I must admit that I was never a fan of leather pants because I didn't feel comfortable in them. I thought they were more for confident and older girls. Now I'm older, not really confident but I'm working on it, and I found the perfect pair! I saw them on the Internet and I just HAD to get them! They make me sexy and cool and they feel so soft! I'm just in love! <3 
They have this really nice details, plain ones would be too boring for me! And the best part, or its a nice part for me, because I feel confirmed that I have good taste, is that I saw them on Kylie Jenner, (woman's crush atm!), Beyoncé and Negin Mirsalehi.

Uhm okay

So as previously stated, I was at a Katy Perry concert with a friend and she actually wanted to go there because of Charli xcx because she is a huuuge fan. A day before she asked me if I wanted to go with her to a Charli xcx concert in Birmingham. She already looked up and the price for the flight, the concert and lodging would be 160€, so I was like okay but let's discuss it one more time. We discussed it on sunday and the price was higher than we first thought (185€) and I already said to her I have to rethink it. The best part is that she already bought the tickets without asking me. Yesterday I told her then that I don't want to come with her because in my opinion it's too much money for 2 1/2 days, and 1 day we will only be in front of the concert hall because she already said that she wants to wait all day there so she could be in the front row. So technically we would only have 1 1/2 days in Birmingham. In addition there are also costs we didn't calculated before like food, transfer from the airport and eventually bus or train if we want to see something in Birmingham. So at the end that would be at least 250€ if not more! And that for 1 1/2 day?! I told her yesterday that it's too much money for me and she was really understanding and said she will ask her mother to come with her. I still felt bad because she was really excited but I was relieved that she wasn't mad... Until this morning! I woke up to a text in which she said that I should've told her that earlier because her mother doesn't want to come with her and she already bought the tickets. Uhm what?! I never told I was completely sure to go with her so why did she bought them?? And now she wants me to feel bad so that I say: hey now that you have the tickets I HAVE to go with you!! I hate when people try to make me feel bad because it's very effective. Well, I talked to my parents and my dad said he would pay the trip for me. I was happy, because I could go with her! I told her that the situation changed and I could go with her. Her answer? 'I already asked someone else and he said yes.' Are you f-ing kidding me?? Why did you make me feel bad in the first place? I know that it wasn't right to keep her hopes up and then saying no but her behavior wasn't right as well.

Oh help

Surprise, surprise, I'm back. What happened to my plans?! I guess the same like with every other of my plans.
I'm again in a very depressing mood, thus I felt a big urge to write it down here. Even though I had a great experience at the Katy Perry concert but that's another story. 
I feel really unmotivated to learn because I looked up what my job perspective will look like and nothing is sunny in Marialand! My future will be in a job I don't like, yay! I mean, everything can change and I don't have to work in that jobs, but that are the ones that match my studies. Therefore I feel really bad and I don't have any desire to learn. The only desire I have is the desire to cry. But I have to other choice, my perspectives in life doesn't look bright and my dreams are so far away that I can't even see them anymore. I hate uncertainty and my dreams are that. I hate doing risks, I rather do nothing. Haha, that's my problem! I wish I was that good in solving problems as I'm in finding them.
